Welcome to Fractal Forums

I have found two spinal regions inside Mandelbulb neg power 8 and Cos Pow 8. Enjoy;

NORMAL BULB; a spine (there should be other 6, if you look carefully)

COSINE BULB; a spine (there should be other 6, if you look carefully)

Here you see my results using the point and click feature and julia mode;

Cosine spine is more elusive, there are spirals too indeed, here is a "triton" zone

mmmm... me likey!
Great find Luca, going to check those regions out!
Thank you for params!

A pleasure. And... nothing new! ;D Jesse did some renderings some time ago, this inspired me!

Also these are great - but none looks like mine? Probably higher quality

But you of course already knew :dink:
Hoping he will also share his secrets :embarrass:

I lived half time outside and inside these bulbs for over a year ;)
So I knew... had a hard time navigating the inside though, but I guess from your tut that you don't use the navi window?

Yes, but after that complicated initial procedure that I explained; without a very keen eye you can explore forever without finding this spot. It's very small! :D

Also julias are greatly sensible to seed variations as you will notice :)

Usually you are a very inspirative, so it is a little honour for me  :)


No real secrets, the series of pics are made from outside! But moved inside the spine and taking a side passage to these weird places.
Did it with the "f" key feature on the navi, if i find the m3a and it is not to big i might attach it on another posting...

ps: nice to see some 'back to the roots' inside renderings from you

 :joy: Your gallery has beautiful pics Jesse

Thank you,  here are the parameters from the spine inspection  :)

I wanted to post them in the parameter list, i thought we had a thread with collected parameters - but i did not found it?
Would be fine if that thread still exists, to make it sticky in a m3d folder somewhere...

Of course it is on;

Easy as drink water while jumping off a skyscraper :o

I completely missed this thread in June. Must have been because it was during my holidays... Thanks for reviving it Dartkbeam, I'll have a look inside...
